What makes Radhanath Swami a Brilliant Teacher?
By admin on July 28, 2010 | Category: Sensitivity | Tags: Brilliant, Radhanath Swami, Stock Broker, Teacher | 193 CommentsIn 1983, I became the first Asian and the youngest person in history, at age 19, to win Gold at the Salesmanship and Sales Management Exam conducted by the London Chamber of Commerce. This was indeed a laudable achievement, given that the exam is held yearly for the past hundred-odd years and attracts participants from over forty countries.
In 1989, during one of my initial interactions with Radhanath Swami, it was but natural for me to vent out the pride I felt in my achievements. He congratulated me with a gracious smile and said nothing more.
Several months passed before he picked on it again. In the middle of a conversation he discreetly conveyed to me, “If academic qualifications inflame our pride, it’s only a distraction for a spiritual seeker.” That obviously jolted my ego, but I knew he spoke for my spiritual welfare. I quietly nodded in agreement.
Later, I wondered how I would have taken that statement if it were to come in one of those initial interactions. I hadn’t developed sufficient trust in him then; I probably would have taken him otherwise and never come back again; that sentence, though true, would have probably plundered my spiritual life.
It’s not just wisdom that makes Radhanath Swami a brilliant spiritual teacher; it’s his deep compassion that makes him so. Driven by that compassion, he orchestrates the flow of wisdom in a way that benefits his students optimally.

Radhanath Swami is not only sensitive and highly intuitive but also very caring. Even after so many months he remembered the incident and only said enough to get the point across.

Radhanath Swami has so much patience. He can hold on to an information, without instantly reacting, and then talk about it on the right time for the benefit of others.

Thanks for sharing such an inspiring experience with HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj. Its the result of his true compassion, which connects him to the hearts of his disciples and heals them from within. Externally this is one of the qualities of a brilliant teacher to say right things at right time.

Radhanath Maharaj teaches us the sensitivity towards a person depending on his/her faith.. preaching according to time/place and circumstance.

Wnderful pastime with Radhanath Swami Maharaj. This shown clearly how much compassionate he is for all of us. If we simply follow his instructions as it is, we will surely get the Supreme destination ie. the shelter at the lotus feet of Lord Krishna.
